Who Owns Space?

War and peace in the cosmos. 

Kite & Key Media is a nonprofit digital media company that takes cutting-edge research from the world's best thinkers and translates them into clear and powerful videos -- while always citing their sources. 

Copernican partnered with Kite & Key to animate and produce this video about the realities and possible future of militarized space. Early treaties pledged that space belonged to all - but the use and targeting of satellites in military conflict is becoming increasing likely. Will conflict spread into the cosmos, or will the world decide that their self-interest is better served by cooperation?

Produced in New York and in Michigan.
